[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our household income is 10 times what my father’s was when I was a teenager.  Living here, what we can afford would buy is the same kind of condo he rented at the time.  So despite the enormous income increase, my housing hasn’t improved in 40 years. You bet I’m bitter. Housing prices are insane and if I have to live in a crappy little place, all I’m asking is that it also not cost half my take home pay. But you have to spend a fortune AND live is a fixer upper here. That stings.[/quote]

LOL. So move. Move to the Midwest. Move to Mexico. Move to anywhere where you can afford it. The reality is that population has increased, demand has increased, and COL has increased. You think that time stops for you? GTFO. Perhaps we could transport you back to 1960 and you'd be happier, yes?

F--ing adjust. All you whiners on here expect the WORLD but refuse to make any adjustments to lifestyle or expectations. If you're not lucky enough to be a trust fund kid, you're going to have to set more realistic expectations. Oh, and unplug from social media. You ladies will be much happier.[/quote]

If you understood it was far more complicated than “the population increasing”, you’d be pissed too.  The wealth gap, wages, unlimited RE investments,  and foreign money in real estate are all screwing everyone who isn’t rich.  If you’re not bitter, you’re either rich, a real estate agent, or not paying attention. [/quote]
